Publication number: 20240140375Abstract: A method for controlling a hydraulic volume in a system comprising a power brake and a driving dynamics control. The system is configured to hydraulically couple the power brake to the driving dynamics control. The method includes: providing a signal to build up a first dynamic pressure for the driving dynamics control; generating a first control signal by means of the driving dynamics control, and providing the first control signal to the power brake in order to provide the hydraulic volume at the hydraulic coupling; generating a second hydraulic pressure by means of the power brake in order to provide the hydraulic volume at the hydraulic coupling; providing the hydraulic volume at the second hydraulic pressure at the hydraulic coupling by means of the power brake; and building up the first hydraulic pressure in the driving dynamics control by means of the provided hydraulic volume.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 17, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Ralf Kinder, Herbert Vollert, Markus Weigel

Patent number: 11914637Abstract: An application executing on a pod may generate a content request for a particular version of content. The application sends a request including an identifier of the version of the content to a repository in a cluster of pods. The repository determines, using the identifier, whether the version of the content is stored in the cluster or stored at a database in a different cluster. The application receives a response from the repository that may indicate that the version of the content is stored in the cluster and the response may include an identifier of a content pod storing the version of the content. The application sends the content request to the content pod storing the version of the content and may receive the version of the content without querying the database for the version of the content.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2022Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Markus Viol, Rick Weigel

Patent number: 11273815Abstract: A braking system for a vehicle, which includes a control system configured to: actuate a pressure generation device in accordance with a braking request signal to generate the brake pressure; ascertain an operational state of the pressure generation device; ascertain a position of a displacement piston of a brake master cylinder based on the braking request signal; and couple a pressure modulation device to a brake master cylinder volume and actuate the device so that the pressure modulation device conveys brake fluid out of the brake master cylinder volume into the wheel brake circuit, if the operational status of the pressure generation device is ascertained to be nonoperational and the displacement piston is in the idle position.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2020Date of Patent: March 15, 2022Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Herbert Vollert, Jonathan Schnur, Markus Weigel

Patent number: 11273816Abstract: In a method, which can be performed by a control device for carrying out an emergency braking and/or panic braking of a vehicle, in a first phase, a setpoint vehicle deceleration requested instantaneously by a driver is ignored and a motor of an electromechanical brake booster is operated in a predefined high power mode such that a main brake cylinder pressure in the main brake cylinder is increased; in an intermediate phase, the main brake cylinder pressure is reduced to a setpoint pressure by pumping brake fluid from the main brake cylinder into the at least one wheel brake cylinder and the motor force of the motor is reduced to a setpoint force; and the brake pressure increase in the at least one wheel brake cylinder is continued during a second phase only if the driver requests instantaneously a setpoint vehicle deceleration.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2018Date of Patent: March 15, 2022Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Bernhard Maier, Friedrich Stelter, Jochen Koretz, Julian Ewald, Manfred Gerdes, Marko Flinner, Markus Weigel, Thomas Schmidt

Patent number: 10967844Abstract: The invention relates to a control device (10) for at least one electromechanical brake booster of a brake system of a vehicle having an electronics device (32) that is designed to compare a provided sensor signal (38) relating to a differential path (d) between a valve body (12), displaced by a controlled motor, of the electromechanical brake booster and an input rod (14) of the brake system with a specified normal value range, such that, if the sensor signal (38) relating to the differential path (d) lies outside the specified normal value range, the electronics device (32) is in addition designed to define a maximum limit value for a target quantity relating to a target motor torque to be carried out by the motor, at least taking into account the sensor signal (38), in such a way that, at least during a specified time interval after the defining of the maximum limit value, at most an actual motor torque corresponding to the defined maximum limit value can be carried out by the controlled motor.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2017Date of Patent: April 6, 2021Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Vairavan Arunachalam, Manfred Gerdes, Markus Weigel
